Goldie Boutilier - The Actress Lyrics

Treat me like a toy to grope or kiss
You can tell me when to stand - when to stand or sit
You can ask me for permission or forgiveness
You can take me out to show me off and buy me gifts
Show me my mark, it’s one I’ll hit
You can make me up, just to wipe it off my lips
You can tell me what to say
Cause you wrote the script
Go on tell me what to say
Cause you wrote it

I am the actress
And this is a movie
So what you’re doing to her
You’re not doing to me
I am so glamorous
Someone should sue me
I am the actress
And you’re in my movie

You can treat me like a boy
Tell me, toughen up
You can call me the man - til you say cut
I’ll react like a cat on a hot tin roof
I can laugh on command
I’d be honored to
I’ll be waiting in your office
Just to get my check
You’ll be smoking your cigar
Like it’s not phallic
Hollywood Boulevard’s got a star for me
A Grammy and an Oscar and a Tony

I am the actress
And this is a movie
So what you’re doing to her
You’re not doing to me
I am so glamorous
Someone should sue me
I am the actress
And you’re in my movie
